Roughly circular and grass-covered, it measures approximately 46 metres across its longest axis and sits on a low ridge running north-east to south-west in County Meath. Where most ringforts present a legible outline to the eye, this one fades away on its eastern and southern sides, leaving the perimeter barely traceable across those quadrants. No original entrance has been identified, though the missing section is precisely where one might expect to find one.

The earthwork is defined by an inner bank and a fosse, which is a defensive ditch, separating that bank from a lower outer bank beyond. The measurements recorded suggest a modest but coherent defensive arrangement: the inner bank rises to around 1.3 metres on the exterior face at its best-preserved point to the east-north-east, and a natural scarp to the west-north-west adds a further degree of elevation. What complicates any straightforward reading of the site is its relationship to a neighbouring monument. To the north-east, the outer bank of this fort merges directly with the outer bank of a rath, which is the Irish term for a roughly circular enclosed settlement of early medieval date, typically associated with a single farming family or small community. The two monuments are effectively conjoined along that shared boundary, suggesting either that they were deliberately planned in relation to one another or that one was adapted over time to abut the other.

The surviving earthworks are most visible on the western to north-eastern arc, where the bank, fosse, and outer bank can still be read in sequence. The rest has either been ploughed away, eroded, or was never completed to the same standard, and the question of which of those explanations applies remains open.
